Thanks alot . You're helping me a lot with the learning electronics .
No problem, thanks for the comment!
thanks...!”
No problem!
Thanks for this video! Been enjoying going through this series. At 1:49 I don't think you have to assume Vf = 1. You can see in the equation that Vf is on both sides of the equation, so you can simply divide both sides by Vf to remove it. This tells us that the rise time of 2.2RC doesn't depend on the value of Vf :)
Good point. Thanks.
I went over and over, and over how the f to get the R needed for the equation 1/(2piR*Fc). I re read my basic capacitor laws, resistance laws and the entire book that took me 3 years to finish.. Thank you so much for making it clear, I did not know Re * Beta had to be included for R. I was just using the parallel answer and using high filter. So glad for these videos. Now I can move on with confidence Thank you 😅
No problem!
Just saying - The problem requires power supplies of + and - 15V not 15V to ground.
Oh damn! Thanks for pointing that out. Time for another video lol!
A build would be nice to see what it does.
In the works!
Excellent, thank you!
No problem!
please help.. i can’t figure out where the percentage taken from? 94% and 60%.
I think what you are referring to is the comparison to solution in question 2.6. Check out the second to last video on my channel. We are basically comparing the current through the diode for that circuit to this circuit.
Thanks for the video! At 6:23, I think the second last line should say: = 15 * 10k/(5k+10k) You may have accidentally used the voltage source from the previous part.
Thanks I'll have a look.
I tried to use this circuit to linearly charge a capacitor but it was hard to figure out the math for it. I instead just used a basic voltage regulator in parallel with the capacitor to linearly charge the capacitor. Though I still only know the basic math for it.
There are some current source circuits you can use from Art of Electronics.
In exercise 1.6 isn't the correct value for 0.05 micro ohms 0.05x10^-6 rather than 0.05x10^6. Then the cable length and temperatures would be much more realistic?
I think its just a typo on the presentation. The calculation is actually 0.05x10^(-6). P=3.78*10^8 is corrent for power loss.
I wished I'd worked it out before posting....I just assumed the outcome was also out by the same factor 😊
@@ChrisLees-e9n thanks for pointing it out!
This is very interesting. I went about it a different way, I see the 5% drop spec to come up with a load resistance of 10 ohms. From there, I got the source resistance of 510 ohm using equation 2.2. And then used the thevenin equivalence to come with voltage divider values which come out to be pretty close to yours. I think the way you calculated Ib is strictly speaking incorrect as 25mA is the emitter current and not the collector current.
Agree about the current calculation. Ie will be slightly higher than Ic but I basically ignored it for the calculations. Interesting method!
Thank you very much for the solution video! Hope it keeps going, because I can't really find any written solutions for The Art of Electronics, which is annoying!
Thanks!
Awesome to find this resource; great help! I'm looking forward to the later chapters and will be following along!
Thanks, I am really enjoying this series I think the difficulty does pick up but should be fun!
Thanks...!”
No problem.
Thank you for the video. I've just bought The art of electronics book, third edition but I'm struggling to find which page it's on. Is there a chance of letting us know which page it is. Thanks again.
No problem, Page 82 on the book for this question. Good luck with your learning.
Nice series!
Thank you.
Nice video. You did a great job focusing on key points without getting sidetracked. It would be all too easy to make this much longer. Thanks!
Thanks.
comprei o livro e estou aprendendo aqui no Brasil! Parabéns pelo projeto!
Thank you, Boa sorte!
Hey great video really like the explanation. I have gotten answer where close to your answer for example for resistance in the first one i got 0.25 ohms and for second 20000 ohms. However i did not use kcl or kvl to solve them. After I calculated the voltage using ohms law V=IR for the given value (50uA)(5k) and when it came to finding the shunt resistance i would use ohms law again and assume the largest value in the both domain they have given us for the first one i just assumed the current to be 1A and solved it like that using Ohms law and got 0.25 ohms and for the second one i did same thing let voltage =10v and divided it by 50uA and got the answer 20000 ohms. I just want to know is my method right. Thank you for your time.
Thanks for the comment. I will need to have a look at the question again. I will let you know.
@@TheEngineeringExperienceYT No Thank you people like you on the internet make it so much easier to learn these complicated topics such as electronics.

Commented on the wrong video?
Great! Subscribed and will join.😊 I didn't notice the book photo at beginning of your videogram as it was only shown briefly, eventually discovered that you are referring to "The Art of Electronics 3rd Edition" manual (not the "Learning the Art of Electronics hands-on manual). And your first diagram refers to page 78. Noting other peoples' comments, I should say that my TAOE books have been sitting unused for some time, and it is great that your videograms encourage me to dust them off and use them again. Thank you ! 😊❤😊
Thanks! Hope you enjoyed the content. Hopefully we can solutions to all the questions in the book. Exercise 2.4 coming tomorrow... hopefully!

Can you review PicoScope?
It's an convenient scope for basic stuff, the bandwidth on mine is quite low. The things I like about it are the pc interface so its easy to capture waveforms, can read and convert digital data (eg i2c), has fft functionality and most of all its convenient to hook up for recording.
@TheEngineeringExperienceYT It's great. The only drawback is that the maximum input is ±20V. How can I test with high voltage?
You can add a divider or get x10 scope lead to reduce voltage going to the input.
i want to ask from the exercise 1.6, where did we get 7.72x10^4 and what is the unit measure of it? it is question c.
Stefan-Boltzmann Equation is in cm so convert all numbers to cm. 1 ft diameter cable 30.48 cm 26.45 ft cable length is 806.196 cm Then calculate radiating surface area A. Radiating surface area = (2 × pi × r) × h) or (pi * d * h) pi * 30.48 * 806.196 = 7.72^x10^4
thank you..!”
No problem

To get a transistor in full saturation a safe rule of thumb is to have a Ib 10 times higher than is needed. That would make the beta required 240. Remember that when a transistor is in saturation the collector voltage is 0.1V. With a base voltage of 0.7V part of the base current does not only flow to the emitter but also to the collector. Therefore a safety factor of 10.
Nice video. What about filling top and bottom layer with GND as well? Can't you look at gerbers in KiCad? I always do check them in Altium. JLCPCB has online gerber viewer as well and recently I noticed there is even DFM check. I checked it out yesterday and it was decent. When it comes to USB protection I took out USBLC6-2SC6 part and used ECMF02-4CMX8. The reason why USBLC6-2SC6 sucks is it's VBUS connection. There is a connection between VBUS and D+/D- lines. If you disconnect your USB so VBUS should drop to 0, but your D+ or D- is pulled to high then your VBUS will be like at 2.5V. I also noticed recent ST schematics using USBLC6-2SC6 with external additional TVS diode so they won't connect VBUS connection and use another standalone TVS there. I personally don't like USBLC6-2SC6 for this reason. If I use it I will not connect VBUS and do the same - use another TVS on VBUS.
Thanks for the feedback, I normally check my pcbs with a different gerber viewer. I'll will check out the part you suggested. Thanks for watching
@@TheEngineeringExperienceYT ECMF02-4CMX8 package is quite small so it sucks for hand soldering. You can use USBLC6-2SC6 and external TVS on VBUS. Or find some other USB protection. Just pointed out thing that's not good with USBLC6-2SC6.
Thanks, I definitely appreciate the feedback!
Best electronic video ever. Thank you. 🙏
Thanks for the comment!

Hi great video. Thank you. Can you put a link to the schematic and bill of materials
Thanks. Link should be live later on today.

Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. thanks for watching!
TAE is amazing books serie( book 2 is a top) but make a vid about is the "amazing" ....thank u sir....as always say "if u want to know something in electronic build it"
Definitely! Building circuits reinforces learning very well.
Or use Darlington transistor with VAR POT to adjust Ic of Q3.
You can certainly do that but I dont you should make the circuit more complicated if you don't need to. Doing a calculation for minimum beta should be sufficient. There are alternatives that I will speak about and discuss in a future video.
This is such a great tutorial. One question, how would one know to convert time constant to natural log?
Thanks, if i understand your questions; from the question we know that we need to get rid 'e' and have just R and C in the equation. So that was the approach I used to simplify equation as much as possible and get rid of exp. The "opposite" of exp is natural log so that's the method I explored to get to this solution.
@@TheEngineeringExperienceYT I see, thanks for the answer. Please keep posting.
No problem
You should consider to use another mouse pointer, it's not very easy to spot where it is on a white background, and keep up with the explanation! Thanks for the video
Thanks for the feedback.
Thank you for the video. One of my favorite classes in college was this lab with Tom Hayes...over 30 years ago now. Your video brings back some good memories. Very clear explanations. If I might make a comment, I would have liked you to return to the example of setting R5 to 100k to see that while you do improve the output voltage level then you need a much higher beta for Q5--emphasizing the tradeoffs (if I have that right). I'm jumping in in the middle as I just saw the article on hackaday, so don' know if you covered it before but yes more transistor theory would be great as well as more discussion about how the output pulse length is determined by component values--maybe you did that in another video. I look forward to watching more.
Thanks for the feedback. The previous video has pulse width calculation and what components contributes towards it (exercise 2.2). Good point on the beta calculation for a higher resistor to round of the trade off discussion!
In order to achieve a full zero to +5V swing at the output, I could try using a logic level, enchancement mode (N-channel) MOSFET. By doing so, loading effects would be negligible during steady state conditions
Good idea. I think that would work!
Good stuff. I have made a ton of transistor related circuits playing with wave form outputs. I learned a lot playing with resistance and capacitance making many wave forms. For instance I would take a single pulse and make it a sawtooth, or a sine wave or a longer or shorter pulse all with a couple of teansistors. Its amazing how we can take one signal and modify it to get our desired output. This circuit you have reminds me of the lightening detector I built. I wanted the sharp small pulse of the lightening to last a bit longer for a better visual effect on the LED strip, so I spent an hour or so getting it tuned to look nice visually with a very similar circuit stretching out the duration of the pulse. It came out nice. Its an LED lightening bolt on the wall, and when lightening is anywhere within 5 to 10 miles from the house it starts blinking in time with the actual lightening outside. At first it was too fast, i wanted it to fade out, and last a bit longer so thats where this part of the circut came in. Its a neat project you can add to this circuit to get a nice visual indication of local weather.
Thank you for the comment. That project sounds amazing! What did you use for lightening detection?
@TheEngineeringExperienceYT it's just an antenna with a tuned circuit of coil and capacitor for a resonance around 5khz and then multiple transistors to amplify and lengthen the pulses detected. The output is a small section of LED strip. So when the 5khz bursts resonate the antenna it detects and lengthens the pulses and applys the voltage to the LED strip. You can find many similar circuits online. But I wanted the challenge of trying to build it myself so I did the calculations and used the parts I had to make it work. It's a fun project.
If you don't mind, I'll make it as a project on this channel. Should be fun! Thanks for the information.
@@newmonengineering Thanks, I will have a look at some reference circuits.
Yes great project!
Thanks!
Thank you for taking the time, love to learn something new.
No problem, thank you for watching.
+5Vcc and input of Q1 are connected to each other? i don’t know what is step input is?
It can be. But it doesn't matter for the circuits. The input signal can come from anything, like a microcontroller, a push button or something else. The circuit need to the input to go high in order to saturate Q1 and ground the charged capacitor.
thank you so much...!”
No problem
Thanks for the video. If you understand how these transistor circuits work... why use the "Art of Electronics' for a videod. IMO... though it was quite a 'popular' book... it's quite outdated. Again... IMO... the "Art of Electronics" ... whatever edition... only survives.. because of it's cult like status... among those who thing it can 'explain' or 'teach' them electronics... a sort of 'short cut'... if you like... that wasn't a justified belief, when the book came out... and isn't justified now.
Thank you for watching, the circuit and question is directly from the book. I do these videos for my own learning and the fact there is not an official solutions to these questions. I think as community we can learn electronics from these questions and develop understanding. I've never heard anyone say it's a shortcut for learning electronics. It is one of the books that gets recommended commonly. There are other books and I will be making videos on them as well
Outdated in what? Transistors do not work the same way it was 30 years ago?
Agreed, the questions is very good for understanding more about BJT operation (and RC network).
@@test143000 Disagree. Modern BJT has better parameters, tighter parameters, and better datasheets. Maybe BJTs from 30 years ago work the same way now that they did 30 years ago; but that is not necessarily true.
@@TheEngineeringExperienceYT That's not my point. We did plenty of these kind of questions in undergrad. Some questions are very good, for increasing understanding... and some questions are much better than very good, for increasing greater understanding. It's the prof that picks those kinds of questions... if one had that kind of prof.
LT spice works better than spreadsheet. If you want pulse, you should look after NE555 this schematic pattern is more obvious for anybody.
It's a questions from art of electronics. Excel is to calculate the answer by analysis putting in a simulation and getting everything wouldn't be in the spirit of the question/learning. Yes, LTSpice is useful for analysis and we did that in the previous video for pulse generator 1 from art of electronics.
The typical 555 schematic is way less intuitive than the knobs on a benchtop signal generator, which is therefore the better solution. Or you can just get the answer from an oscilloscope! 🙃
Haha Knobs on a signal generator are a lot less intuitive than just holding a push button for however long you want the pulse.
This user could have been considered as a cheater by viewers if he had used LTspice for this vid 😅
Definitely! For circuit it is useful and I will make a video on it but to answer a question I don't think it's quite in the spirit of answering the question.
